Headache solved

So we were looking for kindergarten and daycare centre for Xuan and Cheng since theirs were closed down permanently. I feel sorry and sad for it because they both went there since 5yo and 2.5yo. I had never thought Xuan would continue to stay there for daycare before going to school in the afternoon. But the kindergarten was run as home-based and the tuition they offered to primary school children was more like homework coaching so it suited us that we subscribed Xuan. Also, the principle is a kind lady with a few words that always gives children full trust. And not to mention, they were so tolerant with us who had been late everyday. So we were on a lookout. The kindergarten offered Cheng a place at the sister outlet somewhere in another township, together with transport. But they have none for Xuan. It may sound convenient but we have to be really early because transporter will pick Cheng up at 730 at the nanny’s. In the end, we found one that’s to send Cheng to somewhere near the nanny’s. Just as we thought we are almost done with the arrangement, checking out daycare centre for Xuan wasn’t as simple as we thoughts. In fact it is quite sad to see the education has been made too commercialised these days. While I do not really look at the syllabus or methods used for Xuan since he will just be P2 next year, most of the centres offer tuition and are run like centres I attended when I was in secondary which they provide different set of activities books following public school syllabus. Yesterday, we scouted around the area we wanted and finally found one for Xuan. We hope it’s doing good for Xuan because Cheng tested the principle’s patience by dropping her phone on the floor and very patiently, the principle assured him everything’s ok! My boys are just rough as such. So not hoping for an extensive program, we only want them to enjoy the learning process. Having a full time working mum, we have no choice but the kids to bear with us!
